Iran's foreign minister in Oman for talks with counterpart: Iranian media

On 11 July 2026, Iran's foreign minister Araghchi arrived in Muscat, Oman, for talks with his Omani counterpart on the Strait of Hormuz and regional developments. Iran and Oman discussed a 'proportionate mechanism' for Hormuz, and a source told CNN that Oman gave Iran a proposal to manage Hormuz traffic through two separately controlled routes. CBS reported that no US officials were attending the consultations. Iran and Oman are to continue technical talks on the strait, while Trump traded threats with Iran's leader.
